BRS(Bulk Reef Supply) has a video on youtube about correct settings to get AB+ spectrum out of the Hydra 32. I watched and used their AB+ setting for my AI Prime 16HD and the settings are great(great coral growth).

I found a thread here on R2R titled "How to calculate AB+ for Hydra 32" where BRS answers that question.
Light mounted 13" above tank, settings are:
UV 128%
Violet 109%
Royal Blue 89%
Blue 71%
Green 6%
Red 6%
White 21%

If you go to the AI site, they also have signature lighting schedules that you can download and use. I’m using the Saxby currently for a 52HD and a 64HD but had TonyRogers in the past.
